Helping a mate

Wednesday, July 15th, 2009

QUESTION: Masters, please guide me on how to proceed with a very special relationship in my life. The man is troubled and caught in a web. How can I help him? Or should I walk away?     ~Heena, Singapore

ANSWER: This relationship is special to you because you feel so needed. Your boyfriend is a very troubled individual who refuses to acknowledge the problems in which he finds himself involved. He will not take responsibility for his own actions but blames everyone else for what is happening. The web is of his own making.

The only way you can assist him is to try to get him to see what he is doing to himself. You do know that all the decisions are up to him. You cannot make him see anything that he will not open up his eyes to perceive. In this situation you are more just a witness validating his experiences for him then anything else.

You have on many occasions considered walking away, and that is a freedom of choice decision. You must consider what impact this situation is having on your growth and physical well-being. You must honor yourself, including analyzing what you could learn if you stayed and the lessons brought to you if you left.

Helping the dying

QUESTION: Masters, I have two very close friends who are both terminally ill and have perhaps just a few months to be here. How can I best assist them from afar, since I cannot be there in person due to their physical distance from me? Both women seem to depend on me, and ask me to call them once or twice a day to talk about their experiences. Some days I dread talking to one or both of them. I don’t know how to respond at times, and I want to avoid the pain they express. What can I bring into this experience that is positive and helpful? How can I protect myself from the negative and angry feelings/energy which they sometimes express? I am very sensitive and at times feel too much of their pain.    ~Mary, US

ANSWER: You are engaged in some of your service work for this lifetime. Your friends intuitively know that they can talk to you when others find it difficult to speak to them or even to be in their presence. For souls to learn their life lessons, they must work through their feelings about those lessons. Until they have spoken out loud about what they are going through, it is not “real” to them. They must be able to discuss the thoughts and energy around their predicament.

There is a very special trait that some souls have chosen: that is to be a witness for others. Witnessing is the process of allowing others to use you to validate for themselves the processes that they are living. A witness does not have to participate in the actual proceeding but just needs to be available to see what the others are experiencing. You are their witness, and this is as positive and helpful as you can get.

In being there for them to vent, you are doing as much as you could if you were right there in the room with them. This is also lesson time for you, because you can get some of the same emotional experiences they are having without going through the diseases. In listening to their anguish you are living their current life.

You have freedom of choice, so you may stop your torment at any time by refusing to continue witnessing their decline. You also would be stopping the lesson you are having of dealing with the anger, helplessness, and frustration that you mirror. Take the pain you are feeling and go into the roots of it. Some early life experiences are firing in the background and you will be able to rid yourself of these unpleasant feelings once and for all.

Being a medium

Wednesday, July 8th, 2009

QUESTION: Masters, in 1996 I met a woman who channelled White Eagle. White Eagle came through to talk with me on a number of occasions, and during one of our conversations he asked me if I would be willing to become his medium. I asked him if this was a pre-birth agreement between him and me and he told me it was. He asked us both to sign a piece of paper changing the mediumship to me.  Over the years I lost contact with my medium friend and, other than a very vivid dream of being with White Eagle, I have heard nothing. Can you please tell me if he still wants me to be his medium, or has there been a change of plan?   ~Olive, UK

ANSWER: Spirits, non-incarnated souls, departed personas, whatever you wish to call them, have the ability to be in many places at the same time. They also can choose to speak to and through hundreds of people all at the same time. The soul known on Earth as White Eagle normally chooses to speak through only one or two people during any one period of time.

You have a special connection with White Eagle because he is a guide of yours and has been around you for quite some time. Your own belief systems have kept you from being able to easily hear him and communicate to and for him. All you have to do is open up and listen to him and you will be able to readily establish a solid link to his energy.

There was a misunderstanding between you and your medium friend concerning the need for written contracts regarding “Earth ownership” of the exclusive rights to be the sole medium for White Eagle. He finds it very funny that you two believed that anything you did could influence his decision regarding whom he would communicate with-other than putting up blockages in your own minds.

You used this contract concept as a way to validate for yourself that you could talk to him. It was not necessary. Open yourself to believability in his presence and you will find him ready to talk.
